I can also confirm this (using KMail 1.12.4 with KDE 4.3.4 on Debian).

There has been quite a rush (or call it a meme) to move from SHA-1 to other
hashes because of the many advances towards cracking SHA-1. It is actually a
drawback for security when choosing a better hash results in the hash not being
checked at all be the recipient due to a bug on the sender (KMail) side.
